Broke Protocol

Broke Protocol is a city roleplaying game set in a customizable, persistent world. You create a character and play on community-run servers, where players can customize guns, clothing, vehicles and rules, and use scripts and custom content to shape the experience. Your actions affect your progression and rap sheet as you build a life in the city.

Life in the city

You can steal cars, process drugs and trade with citizens, or help others by healing the fallen. Choose from roles such as paramedic, firefighter, driver, gangster and law enforcer, and take on jobs to bring order and justice to the streets. The city is populated by hundreds of AI characters, including citizens, police, firefighters, paramedics and criminals. Interiors include staff, guards and shopping areas.

You can own apartments and garages, and take part in a gang and territory system. The game also supports 3D positional voice chat for public and private interactions between players.

Servers and customization

Servers support over 100 online players alongside dynamic NPCs. Some offer complete overhauls with war or apocalyptic themes. Server mods stream automatically to players and are cached for gameplay.

The game includes a Unity resources package and guides for making custom content. It is fully scriptable and provides the open-source GameSource, LifeSource and WarSource projects. Its World Builder offers thousands of prefabs, with no stated limits, and the voxel environments are destructible.

Vehicles and weapons

You can drive cars, trucks, aircraft, boats and armored vehicles. Usable weapons and equipment include guns, tasers, grenades, flashbangs, smoke bombs and restraints.
